Happy Tuesday everyone! Welcome to the Top Ten Tuesday now hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is Things I’d Have At My Bookish Party (choose 10 things: items, accessories, foods, people (real or fictional), decorations, activities, etc.), but I'm doing something a bit different. At my library this summer we're offering a truncated and primarily virtual or kit based Summer Reading Program given everything that's been going on. We were originally planning on holding a movie party for The Princess Bride since the theme this year is Imagine Your Story (Fairy Tales, Mythology, and Fantasy), so this week I'm featuring Things I Would Have At My Princess Bride Movie Party. As it is now, we're going to be hosting a virtual watch party via Twitter. Without further ado, here's what we would have had:
1. Inigo Montoya inspired name tags for guests
2. A Dread Pirate Roberts mask making station
3. A Princess Buttercup crown making station
4. A "Have Fun Storming the Castle" sign at the entrance to the event
5. An R.O.U.S. warning sign also at the entrance to the event.
6. Letters that spell out "As You Wish" on the floor leading into the room.
7. M.L.T. sandwiches (or in this particular case ham, lettuce, and tomato)
8. Lemonade with a warning label that the contents *may* contain Iocane Powder
9. Peanuts and Peanut M&Ms for Fezzik
10. Hershey Kisses for True Loves Kiss
What do you think? Would you like to go to a themed movie party for The Princess Bride? Now if only we could have made it happen. As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
I love any kind of sandwich, haha. I like the mask-making station as well, I enjoyed making a mask last time I tried it!
ReplyDeleteCan't go wrong with a good sandwich!
DeleteThis sounds like a fantastic party. I need to watch Princess Bride, it's been a while since the last time I watched it.

DeleteA virtual watch party sounds like so much fun! I hope you enjoy this. A Princess Bride themed party sounds fabulous. Can I get one of those "Have Fun Storming the Castle" to hang outside my bookwyrm den?! xD
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping it goes over well with our patrons because it could be so much fun! :)
DeleteThis sounds like such a fun party! I have to be honest and confess that I’ve never seen The Princess Bride (I know - shocking 🙈) and your list makes me want to rectify that! 😊
ReplyDeleteBoth it and the book are both excellent - you so need to try them. :)
DeleteThis looks like so much fun and the Twitter watch party sounds fun too.
ReplyDeleteHave a good weekend!
Thanks, Bea. You too!
